Hi all,

I have 2650XM  router and 2620 Router

Both routers have built in WIC  T1 CSU/DSU cards

My question is that cisco website says there are two type of cable connections for this type of config --

which are  --

T1 CSU/DSU Configuration

Set one CSU/DSU to clock source internal, and the other CSU/DSU to clock source line. The linecode, framing, data-coding, and timeslots must be set the same on both CSU/DSUs.

Four-Wire 56k CSU/DSU Configuration

For my network connection which type of config i should use??

Secondly i try to connect these ports by normal crossover cable  it did not work.

So for this type of connection i know i need T1 cross over cable--  which has RJ 48 connections at both sides.

I check cable from ebay which is

RJ45 RJ48 cross over  --  will this cable work in my router to router connection.

Thanks

Hi Mahesh,

All you need is a T1 Cross over cable. Your modules are T1 with build in CSU/DSU.  Don't worry about the 56k CSU/DSU configuration.

You can make your own or buy one.

Here is one:

Hi Reza,

Thanks for quick reply.

That cable from ebay is not for shipment to canada  only USA.

Please if you can check this link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230416770484&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

and let me know is this is also right cable?

Thanks

Mahesh,

Yes, this would work too.  If you are close to an electronic store, you can usually pick them up at the store, but ebay is cheaper.  Get 2 or 3 6 FT cables.

What part of Canada you live in?

Thanks,

Reza

Hi Reza,

Thanks for reply.

I will buy from Ebay --  as i could not find here in store.
